We put our clothes through a lot and if the smart textiles of the future are going to survive all that we throw at them, their components are going to need to be resilient.

An experiment, elegant in its simplicity, helps explain why water becomes electrified when it touches hydrophobic surfaces.

Scientists from the University of Barcelona and Rockefeller University carried out a study in which the genomic sequences of the oxytocin and vasotocin genes between modern humans, non-human primate species and archaic humans were compared to understand the evolution of human prosociality.

Researchers at the University of Tokyo have revealed the important role of the protein syntaxin in influencing the migratory behavior of the nematode worms. With the help of this study, researchers can also explore in the future the migratory behavior of mammals.

An AI tool was assessed by researchers to predict cancer risk in lung nodules. The study was led by the Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania and the model seems to work equally well on diagnostic CT and low-dose screening CT.

Due to global warming, temperatures in the Arctic are climbing rapidly. As a result, the treeline for Siberian larch forests is steadily advancing to the north, gradually supplanting the broad expanses of tundra which are home to a unique mix of flora and fauna.

Reef health can be measured with the help of sound recordings. Scientists at the University of Exeter conducted a study in which a computer algorithm was trained to identify healthy and degraded reefs based on numerous recordings. The result showed that the computer successfully identified reef health 92 % of the time.

Northwestern University engineers have developed the smallest-ever remote-controlled walking robot — and it comes in the form of a tiny, adorable peekytoe crab that can walk, bend, twist, turn and jump.

An international team of scientists used retrospective radiocarbon birth dating to show that the human liver stays young throughout life and is on average less than three years old.

How we speak matters to animals. Horses, pigs and wild horses can distinguish between negative and positive sounds from their fellow species and near relatives, as well as from human speech, according to new research in behavioral biology at the University of Copenhagen.
